Giini John Scott

Hello, I'm Giini John Scott, a senior product designer in Nairobi.

I design the products people trust with their identity

Seven years designing products that make complicated things feel simple: prove who you are, hand over your savings, take a payment, believe an AI assistant when it says it is not sure. Most people said yes. The six reasons why are below.

01 / 06

Capture SDK

The mobile identity capture flow behind most of Smile ID's verifications. Four releases, five platforms, built to pass on the first try on the simplest feature phone in the room.

AML Monitoring

A compliance screening screen rebuilt around what the API actually returns, so an analyst finds the person who matters in seconds.

Inclusive AI

People-first AI experience and accessibility at Microsoft: how an assistant used at work shows uncertainty, grounds its answers, and works for everyone, screen readers included. Under NDA.

Goal Account

Goal-based savings for a Tier-1 bank, live in five countries. A transactional app became something people open to check on their plans.

Tendepay

Real-time control of a small business's money, from concept to handoff in six months. 1,120 businesses against a target of 500.

KADI!

A Kenyan street card game as a real-time web app. A side project, and a testbed for the engagement loops that power checkouts.
